Use the following MODEL TEMPLATE as the foundation for the Wikicars' Model page:

The Triumph Mayflower was an attempt by Triumph to make a luxury car out of components that were usually employed in making small, economy vehicles. This was due in part to the difficulty in getting parts and materials to build such vehicles. The most discussed feature of the Mayflower is its unique razor-edge styling. Sir John Black, Chariman of Standard Triumph, wanted this type of styling because he was told by Louis Antweiller, Managing Director of Mulliners, that Americans loved Rolls Royces. He decided to name the car Mayflower to appeal to Americans who were descendants of the pilgrims who landed in Massachusetts in 1620.

See Wikicars' comprehensive Triumph Mayflower Review.


Styles and Major Options

The majority of Mayflowers came in a 2-door body style, but are typically called saloons due to their boxy roofs and large rear seats. A few Drophead Coupes, or convertibles, were made but the exact number is unknown.
